AREA RUGS

Comfort and Warmth

Rugs are much softer than the flooring that they’re typically laid over, which provides additional comfort and warmth within your home. The softness of the rug will feel softer on your skin and reduce the intensity of the footstep impact. Additionally, the insulating value of a rug will warm up cold areas such as a basement.

Allergies

Rugs can have a positive effect on the number of allergens that are in your home. The rug will trap the allergens and prevent them from being released into the air that you breathe in. Regularly cleaning your rugs will also greatly reduce the number of allergens in your home.

Noise Reduction and Safety

An area rug will significantly reduce the amount of noise in the area that you place it in. Not only is it quieter to walk on, but rugs also absorb some of the sounds from the air. Floors with a hard surface are less effective at absorbing sound, which could produce an echo. Rugs also provide an extra layer of protection from impacting hard surfaces. Rugs are a great option for protecting children and people who are prone to injuries.

Cleaning

Rugs are incredibly simple to clean and require little time and effort to maintain. The fibers on a rug can be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner to remove any dust particles that build up. If something gets spilled onto a rug, immediately apply a cloth and soak up the liquid. If the rug is stained, use a professional cleaning agent and closely follow all of the instructions. It’s much cheaper to properly clean a rug than it is to replace it entirely.

Aesthetic

The placement of a rug can completely change the dynamics of a room and provide an inviting experience for your guests. Adding a few rugs to a room can provide a refreshing change to the color scheme and even brighten up an otherwise dark room. You can go a step further and layer the rugs to create unique and creative designs.
